Recent shooting of a few golfers

Well we had out annual golf fundraiser for our local club and I thought I would try my hand at shooting golf for the first time. Pretty miserable conditions so it was difficult getting those sharp images.

Anyways a few from the day for C&C.

No.7 - Awesome.

You did well, looked like it was a bit dull.

Thanks The Tractor.

Was a pretty crap day for photo's. Dark and wet. I have the luxury of a golf buggy so at least I got to keep the equipment dry. Got about an hours sunshine from about 5pm. We got back in that evening and had photos on a slideshow on a projector. All the players were over at it. Stories got better as the night went on.

We had about 20 juvenile members play on the day.
Supple swings. Spot the difference on these two !!

Horrible weather to play or shoot in.

My favourites would be #5 and #7, but I like #8 too.

Well done

Some great action shots there. I'm heading to the Old Head with our society soon, and I'm praying for good-ish weather !!

Nothing worse than getting a chance to play there and weather being brutal. Mixed bag at the moment. Enjoy the round. I take it they have dropped their fourball rate from the €1000 they were charging!!
